About COLEMAN® Inverters

The new line of super-efﬁcient COLEMAN® power inverters are innovative in

design and have the highest surge capability in the industry. These extremely

advanced, microprocessor controlled units run cooler and more reliable than

any in their class.Their superior surge capability allows them to start even

the most difﬁcult loads, including color televisions,TV/VCR combinations,

microwaves, refrigeration units, even small air conditioners!They also sport

the highest efﬁciency available (up to 80%) which translates into longer running

time and extended battery life. Inverters convert low voltage, direct current (DC)

to 110/120-volt alternating current (AC). Depending on the model and its rated

capacity, the inverters draw power either from standard 12-volt automobile and

marine batteries or from portable high power 12-volt sources.

Getting Started

When you turn on an appliance or a tool that operates using a motor or a tube,

(such as a television), it requires an initial surge of power to start up.This surge

of power is referred to as the “starting load” or “peak load”.

Once started, the appliance or tool requires less power to continue to operate.

This is referred to as the “continuous load.” You will need to determine how

much power your appliance or tool requires to start up (peak power) and it’s

continued operating power requirements (continuous load). Power consumption

is rated either wattage (watts) or amperes (amps).This information is usually

stamped or printed on most appliances and equipment. If this information is

not indicated on the actual product, check the owner’s appliance or equipment,

check the owner’s manual or contact the manufacturer to determine the power

consumption. Be sure that the power consumption of the item you wish to

operate is rated at 200 watts or less.

Multiply: AMPS X 110/120 (AC voltage) = WATTS

This formula yields a close approximation of the continuous load of the

appliance. All COLEMAN® inverters are designed to automatically shut down in

the event of a power overload. This protection feature prevents damage to the

unit while testing items with ratings in the 200-watt range.

Owner’s Manual

CAUTION

•The inverter is designed to operate from a 12-volt power source only.The unit

will not operate from a 6-volt battery or a 24-volt battery. Do not attempt

to connect the inverter to any other power nominal output voltage

other than 12 volts or damage to the unit may occur. Any damage

to the unit that occurs from operating the inverter from any power

source greater than or less than 12 volts will automatically void the

warranty.

• Do not attempt to extend or otherwise modify the 12-volt power cord attached

to the inverter.

• 110/120 volts can inﬂict serious injury, damage or death. Improper use of the

inverter may result in property damage, personal injury or loss of life.

Connecting the Inverter

The inverter is equipped with a fused 12-volt power cord for connection to the

power source.

1. Make sure that the ON/OFF power switch located on the front panel of

inverter is in the OFF(O) position.

2. Connect the inverter to the power source by inserting the 12-volt power cord

ﬁrmly into the cigarette lighter socket of your vehicle or other 12-volt DC

power source.

3.Turn the inverter power switch to the ON(-) position.The GREEN LED Indicator

Light should illuminate to conﬁrm that power is running to the inverter.

4. Make sure that the device you intend to operate is turned OFF. Plug the cord

from the equipment into the AC outlet located on the front panel of the

inverter.

5.Turn the inverter power switch to the ON(-) position; then turn the

equipment ON.

Notes

•The audible alarm may make a momentary “chirp” when the inverter is turned

ON (-) or OFF(O).This same alarm may also sound when the inverter is being

connected to or disconnected from the 12-volt power source.This is normal.

• If the GREEN LED Indicator Light blinks when you ﬁrst turn the inverter ON(-),

this may indicate an interruption of the power supply. Simply turn the inverter

OFF(O) and remove the 12-volt power cord from the cigarette lighter socket (or

other 12-volt power source). Firmly re-insert the 12-volt power cord, then turn

the inverter ON(-) again. If this does not ﬁx the problem, try using a different

12-volt power source or check the cigarette lighter fuse.

Source of Power

Most automobile and marine batteries will provide an ample power supply to

the inverter for 30 to 60 minutes even when the engine is turned off. Actual time

may vary depending on the age and condition of the battery and the power

demand being placed on it by the equipment being operated.

If you decide to use the inverter while the engine is off, we recommend that

you start the engine every 30 to 60 minutes and let it run for approximately 10

minutes to recharge the battery. It is also recommended that the device plugged

into the inverter be turned OFF before starting the vehicle engine.

Although it is not necessary to disconnect the inverter when starting the vehicle

engine, it may momentarily cease to operate as the battery voltage decreases.

When the inverter is not supplying power, it draws very low amperage from the

battery. It is recommend that the inverter always be disconnected when not in

use.

Blown Automotive Fuses

Depending on the make and model of your automobile, running the power

inverter near full capacity from your cigarette lighter socket may result in a

blown automotive cigarette lighter fuse.This fuse will need to be replaced with

the same type and size fuse. A blown automotive cigarette lighter fuse will not

cause damage to your vehicle wiring.

Blown Inverter Fuses

Your power inverter is equipped with a 25-amp spade type fuse. With

reasonable care, it should not be necessary to replace this fuse. In general,

most blown fuses are the result of reverse polarity hook up of the inverter to a

12-volt power source (positive to negative and/ or negative to positive). If the

fuse happens to blow, disconnect the appliance or equipment from the inverter

immediately. Find the source of the problem, repair it and then install a new

fuse of the same type and size located on the rear panel of the inverter.

Note

Always disconnect the power inverter from the 12-volt power source and make

sure the inverter is turned OFF before replacing the fuse.

Safety and Usage Precautions

• For best operating results, place the inverter on a ﬂat surface.

• Keep the inverter dry. Do not expose the inverter to rain or moisture.

• DO NOT operate the inverter if you, the inverter, the device being operated, or

any surface that may come into contact with the inverter are wet. Water and

other liquids can conduct electricity, which may lead to serious injury or death.

PMP200XL_122205M.indd 8-9 12/22/05 9:09:47 AM

PMP200XL Models

Owner’s Manual

• Avoid placing the inverter on or near heating vents, radiators or other

sources of heat. Do not place or use the inverter in direct sunlight. Ideal air

temperatures should be between 50°F and 80°F.

• In order to properly disperse the heat generated from the inverter while it is

operating, keep the inverter well ventilated. Keep the area surrounding the

inverter clear while in use.

• Do not use the inverter near ﬂammable materials. Do not place the inverter in

areas such as battery compartments where fumes or gases may accumulate.

Inverter Protection Features

• Short Circuit Protection.The inverter will automatically shut down until

short is removed.

• Low Voltage Alarm. An alarm will sound when the voltage from the battery

discharges to 10.5 +/- 0.5 volts DC.This is an indication that the battery needs

to be recharged.

• Over Voltage Protection.The RED LED Indicator Light will illuminate and

the inverter will automatically turn itself off when the input exceeds 16.5 +/- 1

volt DC.

• Under Voltage Protection. The RED LED Indicator Light will illuminate and

the inverter will automatically turn itself off when the input is less than 10.0+/-

0.5 volts DC.

• Overload Protection.The RED LED Indicator Light will illuminate and

the inverter will automatically turn itself off when the continuous draw of

the equipment being operated exceeds 200 watts or the surge draw of the

equipment exceeds 400 watts.

• Thermal Protection. The RED LED Indicator Light will illuminate and the

inverter will automatically turn itself off when the circuit temperature exceeds

130°F.

Notes

•The inverter is equipped with a cooling fan, which is designed to run

continuously while the inverter is operating. Automatic shut down of the unit

caused by high circuit temperatures will occur when the cooling fan is unable

to maintain a cool enough temperature for safe operation.

• In the event of automatic shut down or a continuous audible alarm, turn the

inverter power switch to the OFF(O) position until the source of the problem

has been determined and resolved.

Television and Audio Suggestions

Although all COLEMAN® inverters are shielded and ﬁltered to minimize

signal interference, some interference with your television picture may be

unavoidable, especially with weak signals. However, here are some suggestions

that may improve reception:

• Make sure the television antenna produces a clear signal under normal

operating conditions (at home plugged into a standard 110/120- volt AC

outlet). Also, ensure that the antenna cable is properly shielded and/or good

quality.

• Change the positions of the inverter, antenna cables and the television power

cord.

• Isolate the television, its power cord and antenna cables from the 12-volt

power source by running an extension cord from the inverter to the television

set.

• Coil the television power cord and the input cables running from the 12-volt

power source to the inverter.

• Attach an AC interference ﬁlter or similar product between the inverter and

the television power cord.These ﬁlters are available at most electronic supply

stores including Radio Shack.

Note

Inexpensive sound systems may emit a “buzzing” sound when operated with

an inverter. This is due to the inadequate ﬁlters in the sound system.There is

no solution to this problem other than purchasing a sound system with a higher

quality power supply.

How Power Inverters Work

Power inverters convert low voltage DC (direct current) power to 110/120-volt

AC (alternating current) household power. This conversion process thereby

allows you to use household products, power tools, and other electronic

products away from normal AC power sources (standard 110/120V wall outlets).

Depending on the model and its rated capacity, inverters can draw power

either from standard 12-volt automobile and marine batteries or from portable

high power 12-volt power sources.The waveform that is generated by this

conversion is a “modiﬁed sine wave”.The modiﬁed sine wave produced by our

inverters has a root square mean (RMS) voltage of 110/120 volts, which is the

same as standard household power.

The majority of AC voltmeters are calibrated for RMS voltage under the

assumption that the measured waveform will be a pure sine wave.Therefore,

these meters will not read the RMS modiﬁed sine wave voltage correctly.

PMP200XL_122205M.indd 10-11 12/22/05 9:09:48 AM

PMP200XL Models

Owner’s Manual

They will read about 20 to 30 volts too low.To accurately measure the output

voltage of the inverter, use a true RMS reading voltmeter such as a Fluke 87,

Fluke 8060A, Beckman 4410,Triplett 4200 or any voltmeter identiﬁed as a “true

RMS” modiﬁed sine wave.

In Review

• Never attempt to operate the inverter from any other power source other than

a 12-volt battery.

•The inverter is designed to be connected to the power source with the supplied

12-volt power cord. Do not attempt to modify the power cord in any way.

• When connecting and using the inverter, make sure that the inverter is

positioned far away from any potential source of ﬂammable fumes or gases.

• Make certain that the power consumption of the equipment you wish to

operate is compatible with the capacity of the inverter. Do not exceed 200-

watts.

• When attempting to operate battery chargers, monitor the temperature of the

battery charger for approximately 10 minutes. If the battery charger becomes

abnormally warm, disconnect it from the inverter immediately.

• Use only 25 amp spade type fuses for the inverter.

• When operating the inverter with an automobile or marine battery, start the

engine every 30 to 60 minutes and let it run for approximately 10 minutes to

recharge the battery.

• In the event of a continuous audible alarm or an automatic shut down of the

unit, turn the inverter OFF immediately. Do not turn the inverter ON again until

the source of the problem has been identiﬁed and corrected.

•To avoid battery drain, always disconnect the inverter when not in use.

• Do not expose the inverter to rain or moisture.

• Avoid placing the inverter near sources of heat or in direct sunlight.

• While in use, make sure that the inverter is properly ventilated.

• For best operating results, make sure the unit is placed on a ﬂat surface.
